The first one is a Civil War era store card.
The second one I'm not sure is a coin.
The third one, if genuine, is an Athenian "Owl" tetradrachm.
Best Wishes,

Any value to any of these ? What is a store card ? It looks like a coin with a date on it.

A "store card" is just what collectors call medals or advertising coins made by businesses around that time frame. Yours looks like it is in dug condition, and would probably not be worth a whole lot.
If the tetradrachm is genuine, it will have value.

Athens was a prominent ancient Greece city, the center of classical culture and a great military power. Also prominent was her coinage, primarily the Athenian owl, which became the most authoritative coinage of classical Greece. First issued around 525 BC, the "owls", which bear the helmeted head of Athena the patron goddess of Athens on the obverse and her attribute the owl, symbolizing wisdom, on the reverse, circulated for over 400 years. During this period, the coins artistic style changed considerably but always maintained the same Athena and owl theme.
